Build Great Places / #thisiscnu

Revitalized corridors with plazas and green space; town centers that blend into surrounding streets; neighborhoods that emerge from abandoned malls; energy efficient affordable housing adjacent to transit—These project types represent a fraction of the range and diversity of CNU members’ outstanding work.

From regional-scale visions to single-building historic renovations, CNU members engage in the full range of activities needed to build places people love. We are the planners, designers, developers, engineers, public outreach specialists, local municipal officials, and inspired stakeholders.

CNU member projects adhere to the Charter of the New Urbanism and often emerge from extensive public engagement—so they respond to genuine needs and visions relating to where and how people want to live, work, shop, and play.

Explore our projects. Discover how, in the last 25 years, CNU members have been responsible for transforming cities, towns, neighborhoods, and streets into thriving, diverse places that promote and celebrate people. They are places where community is created, visitors return, and residents don’t want to leave. Places that inspire us and capture the imagination. Places people love. #thisiscnu
